Is Auto HD for YouTube safe?
Auto HD for YouTube loads remote stylesheet resources when its popup or help page opens.
When you open the extension popup, it fetches a Google Fonts stylesheet for its interface. If you click Help, the help page also loads a Font Awesome stylesheet from cdnjs, sending normal request metadata such as IP address, headers, and referrer to those services.
